We took a ferry from Fajardo to get to this place. We went to Flamenco beach as we saw that it was recommended. This is one of the most beautiful beaches I've ever seen. No high rises, not even little buildings in sight when you're on the beach. It's just gorgeous, SOme parts have huge waves and others a perfectly... More

We decided to take a day out of our week in Puerto Rico to go to Culebra. We had heard about the beautiful beaches... Well, we first thought we would take the boat, the weather had been fine, but then talking to several people we heard that though the boat/ferry fee is minimal it's a 2 hour ride where many... More

Read all before you go!!!! July 2011: Culebra, Puerto Rico is considered by many people to have 1 of the top 10 beaches to visit, "Flamenco Beach". Believe it or not, I visited Culebra and found that Flamenco Beach is a beautiful beach, but I am NOT going to talk about it. I am going to talk about Tamarindo Grande... More

I just came back from a trip to Culebra. If you have been to any island in the caribean, you will appreciate Culebra for its heat, constant weather, nice beaches and caribean food. The island is very similar to other like St Marteen or The Saint Island (South of Guadeloup). Getting in and out from there is the tricky part.... More

Jan 2007 Culebra was a beautiful experience but no one told me I had to arrive at the embarcadero 2 hours before the departure of the ferry. I was just awful. Very unorganized. They started selling tickets at 815 am even though the ferry supposed to departure at 900am!!!. There were hundreds of people waiting in line. Finally we were... More

My boyfriend and I just returned from a two day visit to Culebra. We stayed at Tamarindo Estates. The room was clean, the innkeepers friendly, and they did have additional welcomed features such as a movie collection and coolers and towels for general use. There are two reasons that I would probably not stay there again. Reason 1: the location-... More

Culebra Island was beautiful. The beach was beautiful, the sand was white and soft. This island is a hidden treasure! I took the 2.50 ferry both ways, it was not bad at all. It is a relacing island, not commercial. No jet skis, parasailing ect.... I can't wait to go back More

We flew into San Juan on Monday June 6 via American Airlines from Orlando, then took a hopper flight on Air Flamenco to Culebra. Our accommodations were at Tamarindo Estates on the West end of the island. We left on Thursday June 9 taking the 11:30... More
